    Jesus the middle eastern, long haired, bearded, Jewish hippie preaching far left political values? They’d be rioting to deport him in a heartbeat. I doubt even white Jesus would sway these nut jobs.

      You think they’d do that? Just go after a brown guy without a birth certificate who was talking about peace and love and the virtues of poverty in Arabic?

    Why are so many people willing to deny Jesus so that Trump can win? It feels like that lady wanted to say Trump but only said Jesus out of obligation. I just don’t understand it. Probably because it doesn’t make sense.

    I guarantee you that if the wokest, socialist-est Nazarene in the New Testament, a Jew named Yehoshua “Jesus” benJoseph, ran in Republican counties, he’d not get even 2% of the vote by “Christians”.
